Grants to Brennan Center for Justice

NEW YORK, NEW YORK —
The Brennan Center for Justice is a nonpartisan institute for law and policy, affiliated with New York University School of Law. The Center will use this grant to convene a roundtable discussion among experts, practitioners, and advocates to explore potential strategies to address reducing disparities as an explicit and integral part of criminal justice systems reform, and the trade-offs; and develop a report synthesizing the roundtable's discussion into specific recommendations for concrete and practical activities that will be made available to the field and the general public.
